What do robotics interns do?

As a Robotics Intern, you'll often assist with a mix of hands-on hardware assembly, software development, and system testing under the guidance of experienced engineers. Your projects might involve coding robot behaviors, troubleshooting sensors or actuators, and helping to prototype or refine automation solutions. Interns frequently collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, giving you exposure to both engineering and project management aspects. These experiences are designed to build your technical skills while providing insight into how robotics solutions are developed in a professional setting.

What is a robotics intern?

A Robotics Intern assists engineers in designing, programming, and testing robotic systems. They may work with hardware and software, troubleshoot issues, and contribute to research and development. Interns often collaborate on automation, sensors, and control systems to improve robotic performance. This role provides hands-on experience with emerging technologies in robotics and automation.

What skills and qualifications are needed to thrive as a robotics intern?

To thrive as a Robotics Intern, you should have a solid understanding of robotics fundamentals, programming (such as Python or C++), and basic electronics, often backed by coursework in engineering or computer science. Familiarity with robotics platforms (like ROS), CAD software, and prototyping tools is highly valued, as is any hands-on experience through labs or personal projects. Strong problem-solving, adaptability, and collaborative communication skills set outstanding candidates apart. These abilities are critical for contributing effectively to project teams, learning quickly on the job, and making a tangible impact during your internship.

Job description

The Company

We believe general-purpose, generally-intelligent robots will be built in our lifetimes. Robots will work in our factories, move our goods, walk on our streets and eventually be in our homes. To build that future, research and deployment must work in lockstep: real-world operation must make the technology better and better technology must make deployment easier. We're looking for the thinkers, builders, and researchers who want to be part of that loop. **

As an AI robotics company that deploys its inventions directly into the facilities that need them, on state-of-the-art hardware, every line of code written at Tutor has a direct impact on the global, physical economy.

Our Culture

We believe that something truly special can happen when talented, motivated people work together; at Tutor, every member of our team is empowered to have real impact in everything that they do. We're characterized by both technical excellence and next-level collaboration and respect.

 
The Role
Tutor Intelligence is using AI to learn from a large fleet of robots to do useful work in factories. As a research intern, your work lies at the center of this challenge, building the AI algorithms and systems that drive novel capabilities in the lab and in the field. This is a unique opportunity to see your work at scale in a fast-paced research organization developing and deploying novel robot learning algorithms on real hardware at massive scale.
 
At the core, we are looking for motivated and curious individuals who have exceptionally strong programming fundamentals. Experience in specific technical stacks or with robotics/ML are helpful but not requirements: whatever shape your skill set is, Tutor engineers and researchers shape their own roles to best tackle the frontier of robotics development.
 
We're looking for interns who can join us for 4-6 months to do substantial, impactful work, including work that culminates in a first author robotics paper.
Requirements
  • Exceptionally strong programming skills
  • You should have significant research experience, including first author publications at top-tier peer-reviewed conferences (e.g., ICRA)
  • Natural collaborator, excited to work closely with a team of researchers and engineers
  • Research experience, practiced at solving open-ended problems
  • Excited to reshape the physical economy by filling factories with intelligent robots
  • Not afraid to step foot in a factory or a warehouse
Nice to haves (zero or more)
  • Experience training and improving AI models, especially models used in robotics (e.g., diffusion policy)
  • Advanced proficiency with Python
  • Experience with robot arms / manipulation
  • Experience with motion planning and robot optimization
  • Experience with perception or computer vision (deep or classical)
  • Experience with infra and devtools (systemd, Docker, Kubernetes)
About Our Roles & Titles

At Tutor, we believe great engineers and researchers are defined by what they build and the impact they have - not where they sit in an org chart or what title they have. Therefore, everyone in our R&D org holds the title Member of Technical Staff (MoTS). Our job postings use standard titles so you can find us, but if you join Tutor, you'll be a MoTS - with a level that is determined through the interview process.

That also means we hire people, not slots. Work at Tutor evolves every quarter, and we set the expectation of flexibility from day one - it's common for people to start on one thing and shift to another based on where the team needs them most. A high technical bar across the board is what makes that flexibility possible: it's what allows people to contribute meaningfully whatever problem they take on.
